Finally!!! It ended with praise after waiting for over a year.

@Zeezou...
Congrats on your success. just want to have to something clarified. Which one did you receive; offer LETTER or a MAIL that indicates you have been offered the job? I know there is no difference really , just want know.
Coz the latter is what audit guys have been getting, not the letter itself. They were told that their own offer letters will be ready for pickup on resumptn.

Please how long does it take for kpmg to reply you after the accessment centre

Depends on the department it seems. For Audit, it takes less than a week normally, in fact, it could be as early as the later on the same day.
For other departments, not sure.

I have been worried maybe it's because my sch hasn't sent my transcript that I haven't been booked for audit AC.
So are ppl invited for AC without transcript,
Been waiting for audit AC for a while.

Still hopeful.

Yes, I submitted my own transcript on the day of the AC itself. So, i dont think it's transcript that is holding you back. I had to wait one month too. They will get in touch with you i'm sure. Perhaps during the next batch of AC, coz it seems AC is on hold now. When did you do documentation?

Please is the benchmark mail something like this:

"Thank you so much for taking time to participate
in our interview at the partner's level

We are glad to inform you that your profile is being
considered for a graduate Trainee role in the Audit Division.

Please note that this does not signify that an offer has been made.

We will contact you to provide feedback as soon as this stage of the recruitment process
has been concluded.

Please endeavour to forward your transcript to us if you have not already done so.

Thank you for your interest in KPMG"?

This is the mail I received after my PI. What could be the average time taken to get feedback after receiving this mail?

I am in Audit



Yes, that's the benchmarking mail.

Dont know about average time it takes to get feedback after this mail sha. I only know mine took exactly one month, b4 the feedback.

Hello guys, concerning the filling of the trainee form for documentation, how can i manage the space meant for all the courses we did in school from year 1 to 5 considering the fact that I did nothing less than 20 courses per year (first and second semester combine).

Need an urgent reply to this pls�����


Just fill in the ones the space can accomodate, they are not ignorant of the fact that the space provided is not enough. That's what i did sha and there was no problem regardn dat. There is no way you can possibly fit in every course. That's why they still wanna have your transcript na, to have the complete details and perhaps to verify the accuracy of the ones that u put on the form.

Lemme get this straight, so after panel interview during AC, one would still be invited for partner interview at a latter date for those who aced the AC?
And please has anyone received mail regarding AC this week?

Yeap, you will have an interview with a partner at a later date if you are successful at AC. AC's interview is 4 versus 1 usually, but PI, its one on one, eyeball to eyeball grin grin

Please what is to be expected during PI.
Can you please shed more light on the analytical questions. My unit is TRPS. What's yours.
Thanks

Audit ni o. And i am not sure PI for audit and TRPS are similar. I dont know sha.
But during my own PI i was asked fairly similar questions to those the panelist asked during AC. But this time around, the partner was more ruthless than the AC panelists. She asked a 2 or 3 new questions tho. But overall, the experience was similar to AC but just more intense. You know that kind of one on one, eyeball to eyeball discussion with somone who has a huge say in whether you will get an offer or not

Pls I also had my documentations on June 17 and I picked audit but I've never been called for AC. Is it that they're dropping people after documentation or what

I dont think so. If they wanted to drop you, dey wud nt hav allowed you to take the test sef once they sighted your docs. I think the likely reason is this...
There is a limited number of pple dat can do AC per day. When i did mine, we were just 9 for the mornin session. And i think dats the number dey schedule on the average per session. About 8 or 9 people. Soo dat means they can schedule just 16-18 per day and split them into 2 sessions. So, its in batches basically. So, in view of dat, The fact that you and Mr. A submitted docs on d same day would not automatically translate to having AC on the same day. I m not sure of this explanation o, so dont take it too seriously, but its likely right. So, hopefully you will be among the next batch of invitees.

By the way tho, How did u do the documentation?? In person or mail?? And if by mail, did they aknowledge receipt of the mail?
If they dint acknowledge it, you might wanna send them a mail ASAP

Please for those who wrote the KPMG aptitude test, give us hint on the current affairs questions. like AOC. (For those who can remember specific questions can also drop them thanks.

And the ESSAY too, anyone with. some possible topics

And lastly The Logical Reasoning part of the exam is it the same as Critical Reasoning in the GMAT pack?

The book too big I will love to focus on important things


Current affairs : capital of central african republic
Number of senators and house of rep
Which country is not part of EU
Wich is not part of UN
etc sha ... should not be more dan 6 or so sha
Check prev pages for other questns sha ..i think pages 58 and 59 of 2015 thread

Essay : in ur country, is there more need for land to be used for housing and industry or be cultivated for agric purposes? ... somtn like dat
2. Wat is one skill dat is a absolutely needed to be successful in life. State one example and give reasons

About the logical reasoning.. yes, they are similar to some extent, but KPMG's has more to it than is covered in GMAT

I was called first too.

Good, so its probably a normal tn for them to do. So, @ibto1, are u sure ur line has always been available since after AC sha? Just asking o, not trying to scare you o grin

Thought as much ....you have a valid point tho... because during AC one of the panelist jst kept writing ND recording in some kind of form..though I am still waiting for PI (audit)...it's being close to two months since I did AC.....it will all end in praise....can't wait to meet you guys ;
D grin

U will be called eventually, since u were successful at AC. You will be invited for PI. From wat i heard, those partners are very busy pple. The day i did PI, i think we were just four.
But on another note though, i dont know if dats how they operate normally sha, but their HR contacted me first to ascertain my availability before they sent the actual mail later that day. So, i hope the phone number you gave them has been available since sha? Just incase they try/tried to reach u. Dont worry ur head tho o, i dont know if its a norm for them or just once in a while.
Perhaps Janedoe could comment on how she was invited too
